Oh once there was a ship that sailed on Barbary, and the name of the ship was the Gallant Argosy.
We feared she would be captured by the Spanish enemy as we sailed along the low-land, low-land, we sailed along the low-land sea.
Then up stepped the youngest mate and boldly upspoke he, and he said unto the captain, What do y' have for me if I swim up to the side of the Spanish enemy and sink her in the low-land, low-land, and sink her in the low-land sea?
Oh I will give you diamonds and buckets full of gold and my own fair daughter, your bonny bride to hold if you swim up to the side of the Spanish enemy and sink her in the low-land, low-land, low-land, and sink her in the low-land sea.
So the crew they made him ready and he left the Argosy, and he swam through the water, and sank the enemy.
Then quickly he swam back, but the Captain did not see and they left him in the low-land, low-land, low-land, left him in the low-land sea
Oh the crew they pulled him out but upon the deck he died, so they stitched him in his hammock, and threw him o'er the side, where he floated on the waves and he drifted with the tide, then he sank beneath the low-land, low-land, low-land, he sank beneath the low-land sea
The Brothers Four are an American folk group founded in 1957 in Seattle, Washington. Bob Flick, John Paine, Mike Kirkland, and Dick Foley met at the University of Washington, where they were members of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity in 1956 (hence the "Brothers" appellation).

Even though they were not expected at the club, they were allowed to sing a few songs anyway, and were subsequently hired. Flick recalls them being paid "mostly in beer."
